The USB 'sticks' do not need 'Safely Remove' Just plug them in, use them, and when you are done, unplug them. The WD drive can be a bit more of a challenge. But unless you have adjusted it's properties to enable delayed write, there is no need for safely remove there either. The exception is if you installed any software on it rather than just putting data on it. I have a 250, and if it's idle, I can shut it off or remove it at will without doing anything special first. Sometimes Vista warns me that I might lose data that way, and sometimes it does not.

These days I never do remove it. There is little real use for most folks of 'Safely Remove.' 'Gus' wrote in message news. >Hello everyone, I own a Western Digital Book 250GB Essential Edition, and >two >USB sticks 1. Verbatim Store & Go 2. Kingston Mini Fun.

That's like crossing the street on red lights and saying 'I've done this a thousand times and had no problems, so there is little real use for traffic lights'. The removal policies are a placebo in most cases.

NTFS formatted drives always have a write cache enabled. Even without a write cache a background process or a simple autosave to an open document might occur just a moment before the drive in unplugged. Safe removal (or a Windows shutdown) is the only way to be sure that everything is fine on the drive. Uwe Wandering wrote.
